		The rail bus concept was intended to provide a passenger service on minor branch lines where the available traffic did not support economic use of a conventional steam-hauled passenger or mixed train, or even a rail-motor service provided by one of the relatively new '42 footer' CPH 'tin hare' motors.
		As the leader of the first group of rail buses, FP1 is historically significant because it demonstrates the application of the emerging road bus concept to rail transport, to provide a passenger service on branch lines where the level of patronage did not justify a conventional passenger or mixed train, or a rail motor.
		The first rail buses also have obvious social significance, in the first instance because of their importance in attempting to provide a passenger service where more conventional rail transport was uneconomic.

		The Transport Executive was in favour of WMT involvement in the consortium, as it would protect Line One from bus competition.
		The Transport Executive described DoT appraisal of the scheme as "rigorous", which was curious given that the Department failed to carry out the simplest of checks on claims such as the ridership forecast (which was about 300% of the figure actually achieved).
		With the investment strategy pursued by WMPTE, overall public transport patronage now is lower than in 1998, the year before Line One was opened, and much lower than in 1984, the year of the WMCC Report.

		Improving the quality of rail transport for freight has the benefit of mitigating the otherwise unsustainable long-term pressure that will be placed on the capacity of the State's road network.
		It demonstrated pretty clearly why rail accidents were happening: the economic theorists had said that people should be made to compete for the use of the track, that a few telephone calls could be made and the trains would not crash, and so on.

	World Metro List - Metro Bits - mic-ro.co(s)m
		One reason is that definitions of what a metro is may vary according to who you ask (a popular definition is here).
		Differences between heavy rail, metros and trams began fading in the past few decades as more metros now include stretches shared with roads or heavy rail.
		In other cases, metros have gradually evolved from tram or rail lines, so it is often difficult to tell the actual length or date of inauguration of a metro.
